There was a brand new Callaway Supercharged SC580 at Byron dragway today when Dom, Lee and I were running. I watched his first run. When he dropped the clutch the car lurched.... and lurched.... and then drove down the track at about 45mph!
He then parked the car. We walked over to take a look and found the belt laying there on the engine and the tensioner pulley broken clean off. So either it was a defective pulley or Callaway didn't do their homework on how much force that pulley needs to absorb. It looked like just the stock tensioner. So much for a Callaway at the track.
